8 New Bib Gourmands Announced for MICHELIN Guide Kyoto Osaka 2024

The popular belief about the MICHELIN Guide is that it’s all about the stars, but don’t forget about Bib Gourmand too! Bib Gourmand awarded restaurants are adored by their many diners, because these restaurants offer satisfaction beyond what you’d expect for the price. Today, we present a list of eight restaurants that will be joining our Kyoto Osaka Selection.

Bib Gourmand has appeared in every edition of the MICHELIN Guide and is loved across the world. If you are seeking a dining experience offering incredible satisfaction for the price, why not savour the offerings of a Bib Gourmand restaurant?
Let's take a look at the eight establishments that made their first appearance in the MICHELIN Guide Kyoto Osaka 2024.

Saketosakana DNA KYOTO

Izakaya

‘DNA’ was appended to the name to evoke the richness of Japanese cuisine and the spirit of Japan as defining features of the restaurant. There’s a reason why the soup using kombu kelp and bonito dashi stock takes pride of place.
